And the real success story is that they are still together.

How wonderful to find your “forever home” location, 25 years before retirement age and spend the next 25 years never ever becoming bored and ending up with a beautiful and extremely valuable home. For me, that beats blowing £10k every year taking the family to Orlando and just having a box of photos to show for it, but that’s just me I guess…I bless this family.

I remember watching this all those years ago (in Australia) and feeling their pain - we've been renovating for 30 years almost (four different houses, but the combined size of those four houses probably add up to Sue and Martin's house). Amazing effort. But, time has certainly stood still for Martin - he looks exactly the same!

I really admire this couple for staying with it. Most people these days would give up, or decide they'll lose money on the project, but in their case, the project has been their life, and how much more enriched are they because of it.

[matrichardson]

Possibly the best build GD has ever been involved with. Must be complete life fulfillment, very envious

[philtucker]

I have met Kevin and I’m very envious of the opportunities he has had doing these programmes to see first hand the realisations of peoples own personal visions. It demonstrates the very best of human endeavour.

[unkle_Enkil]

What gets me everytime, is that these people see the finished product before building has even started, we see a decrepit tumbledown barn, they see a magnificent home. 10/10 for the grand design team for their hardworking over the years. Rarely watch TV these days but will happily binge watch G.D. over and over again.

[jobond]

My mum loved Kevin McCloud and his grand designs. I haven't been able to watch his programmes since she died but this one made myself My mum would have loved to see it

[tommyd]

This is a lovely home. You can see the value of it evolving organically.

[margaretlovelock]

What a beautiful home they have created and the sacrifices to do it. They truly deserve what they have created, what a heritage for their kids one day. Renovated with love 🫶

[michellegordon]

I'm so thrilled, for this lovely couple and hope that they continue to enjoy their beautiful home

[bobobahia]

Simply beautiful. I love that they stayed together all those years. Clearly they in some part enjoyed the journey, and the house shows it. I much prefer these kinds of projects than the super swanky ones.

[jacksg]

Beautiful ...good for them ...done a wonderful job ...

[recolletsmanoir]

That is so amazing. We are 14 years into our renovations of a 17th century convent. It is comforting to see someone else who understands...and to see that there actually is hope and light at the end of that tunnel.

[zbynek]

I watch Grand Designs from first episode. I like to see how changed People through the years and of course how changed Kevin, and what never changed... passion of builders.

[stephanieyee]

I remember watching this episode. The caravan scrapeing along the wall in the lane. I put my hands up to my face watching that then and again now.

[chriskelly]

Beautiful.
A gorgeous house and a wonderful HOME!
Family & life goals.

[debrap]

You have to admire their dedication to this restoration and more importantly to each other and their children. Well done you two!

[davidkyle]

The interior spaces are so simple and magnificently done. Brilliant work by the owners.

[chrisbaggarley]

Hi Kevin, thank you for following uo this story of restoring old barns and the dedication that goes into the creation of a family home.
